With rapier wit, Moran slices right to the truthwhether it's about the workplace, strip clubs, love, fat, abortion, popular entertainment, or childrento jump-start a new conversation about feminism. With humor, insight, and verve,How to Be a Womanlays bare the reasons why female rights and empowerment are essential issues not only for women today but also for society itself.
